Has made a couple of pens.

The first (blue) Sierra he made yesterday as a present for his childminder. I helped him quite a bit on that one. Less so on the orange one, which he made today virtually by himself (I did the drilling & trimming).

He is properly chuffed with his efforts

That's a really great start and hope it gives him confidence to continue with his new found skill.

Keep it up James, look forward to the next one.

And if dad moans about not getting on the lathe then tell him you can turn the pens for him, save him time...:funny:
